On: Poll: Allow override of noprocrast?

You should lose karma if you override it

You do, in a way. Only you lose real-life karma through diminished possibility for success :)

The procrast thing always seemed insanely odd to me. It's trivial to override and it seems like a diet plan akin to writing "don't eat me" on all the junk food in your house.

Read HN or do not. There is noprocrast.

Agreed. I imagine an ad, seen by a character in a Philip K. Dick novel:

"Noprocrast! The best way for current you to impose your will on future you, guaranteed! For the disciplinarian in all of us, at last, a ready and willing subject!"

[mattchew → davi]

For those of us that need it, it makes all kinds of sense. Figuring out better ways to control future me is an ongoing project of mine.

A couple weeks ago I gave my buddy $20, if I get my app out for sale by the end of the month I get it back, if not he spends it.
